Former Crimson Tide safety Vinnie Sunseri agreed to terms on a four-year deal with the New Orleans Saints, the team announced Friday. Terms were not initially disclosed.

Sunseri is the second of Alabama's eight drafted players to sign an NFL contract. Defensive end Jeoffrey Pagan, who is now with the Texans, was the first.

The Saints used the 167th overall pick in the fifth round to pick Sunseri, whose decision to leave Alabama after three years surprised many around the program. His recovery from a torn ACL was faster than anticipated, though, and he performed well at Alabama's second Pro Day in April.

New Orleans coach Sean Payton told reporters last week that Sunseri would be ready for offseason training activities later this month.
